Watching Recorded Shows Cannot Fast Forward without Jumping Back To Beginning

When watching a recorded show and fast forwarding, we frequently get a spinning circle and an error message indicating something about a congested network, then it reverses the recording back to the beginning. No one else is using the Internet. This happens so frequently so that we’ve given up fast forwarding. We have Google Fiber.

I'm not surprised. The Samsung streaming app has always had issues. You'll have much better experience with a streaming device, like Roku, Fire, Apple TV, or DirecTV Stream box.
